Egg Hunts!

We had fun this year watching Spencer discovering Easter. Today we had spent the sunday with our friends James and Wendy and their children at her dad's house. Or as Spencer called him PAPAW. Living in Tennessee too long already. But we had a great time, and an Egg Hunt. He loved finding the eggs. It was just too cute to see.






We also had an Egg Hunt on Friday, with our MOPS Group. It was Spencer first Egg Hunt, so he would pick one egg put it in the basket and look at me to ask if it was okay to pick another one. I have had so much fun with Easter this year. Having children is such a blessing and they make life fun and entertaining.

They are BEAUTIFUL

It's Easter, and we stayed after church today and took some pictures. I don't know if its just because they are mine, but I think they are just the most beutiful kids. Here is why...

What a blessing...

The other night we had a very strong storm during the night. We put the kids to sleep and Borja wanted to watch a movie, I am glad I fell asleep as soon as I hit the bed. Around midnight, I hear a scream next to me. I jumped out of bed with my heart pretty much in my hand. It was Spencer, which surprized me. I always hear him comming, but I had no idea that night. "What's wrong Spencer?" He said almost crying "I am scared mommy." Well Stephanie who usually sleeps from 9 to 2 decided it was time to eat after waking up with the scream also. So I poked Borja and told him to take Spencer and I would take care of Stephanie. YEAH... So what does he do? Puts Spencer in bed with us. NOT what i had in mind.

Anyways I finished nursing, and changed her diaper 3 times. She thought it was time to be cute and play. HUM!!! So she came to our bed also. It went something like this... Borja,on one half of the bed, Spencer, Stephanie, and Me on the other half. I did not sleep at all. Afraid of rolling on top of her, or Spencer rolling on top of her. I was kind of frustrated. The next day when they took naps it was my plan to just sleep, and sleep, and sleep. But when I saw them sleeping I could not help but think what a blessing it is. To be their mother, they are such wonderful children. How amazing it is to know that God has entrusted me to have these special children and raise them. That i have the ability to mold their lives, and have them be an impact for good in this world. When I think of a hero I think of my mother, and how much she has sacrificed. Mothers have a special place in this world, there is no one or nothing that can come close to do what a mother can. Fathers of course have their own special place, howvere it is different. No need to say all I did was watch them sleep and think of how much I love them. I am so grateful I can take time and just look at them. And know that they are mine.

SPRING project...

Well, we though Spring was here, so while we were at Home Depot, we picked up some flowers. We had a lot of fun planting and making our home look pretty. And by we I mean Spencer and I. We came home and I had to feed Stephanie, and Spencer and myself. No need to say it took a while before we could go outside and plant. Spencer was soooo excited to go outside, he kept telling me... "Mommy lets get to work..." So we got to work, and now tomorrow it will be really cold maybe even some snow, so we will have to bring our flowers in, so they don't die... CRAZY WEATHER

Spencer the Handy Man

Daddy had to work this Saturday, and I know I was going crazy if I stayed at home with the kids. So we went to Home Depot, and Spencer built his bird house. The back of it is made out of plexi glass, and it goes on the window. So now he always looks out of his bedroom window to see if there is a bird there already. He did such a good job, hamering and screwing the nails. I had no idea he was that coordinated. I am SOOOOOOOOOOOO proud of him.

Boy or Girl?

We were going out this week, and I was playing doll as usual. The funny part is that while we were out and about. Someone looked at Stephanie in her carseat, and asked me if she was a boy or a girl. "REALLY???" "what do you think, she has a big bow, earings, and not to mention the ginormous pink paci..." Not only that but I think she has such feminine features that I would know she was a girl even without all the girly stuff. I think if anyone asks me that again I will punch them. They deserve it for being STUPID.

2 Babies in the house.

As I was cooking this week, I put Stephanie on a pillow on the floor in the kitchen. And as I looked Spencer decided he needed to lay down also. Stephanie loves her big brother and does not take her eyes off of him.
